ONM: Facebreaker KO Party Review

ONM writes: "If you’re the sort who keeps hold of your old issues of ONM, have a gander at the cover of issue 30. You know, the one with the boxer getting punched in the face. That was our exclusive preview of Facebreaker, the game that promised to offer addictive and crazy boxing action, the game that promised to be the Punch-Out!! alternative we’d been waiting for years for. Unfortunately things haven’t quite worked out that way…

We can appreciate the developers were trying to make a simple arcade-style boxing game which does away with boring technical realism in favour of pure gameplay. Ultimately though, they’ve created a game which is far too simple for its own good."
